The Ku Ku's Entertain

Nebraska 14, Kansas 0

ORNHUSKER stock took a boost in the Home-coming game, October 24, when a somewhat battered eleven won Nebraska's twenty-first victory over the Kansas University Jayhawks. Held scoreless for the first two quarters by the heavy Kansas team fighting a desperate defensive battle, the Huskers finally found themselves in the second half and scored two touchdowns.

     Nebraska outplayed Kansas from the start, gaining 186 yards from scrimmage against 18 for the jayhawkers. Fumbles by the Nebraska backs kept down the score in this period. The Huskers amassed a total of eighteen first downs during the game, against two for Kansas.

      "Choppy" Rhodes broke the spell that had turned back the Huskers and carried the ball down the field for repeated gains, going over for Nebraska's first tally in the third quarter. Brown, in an electrifying 53-yard run planted the oval behind the chalk mark for the second touchdown.

      The work of Lonnie Stiner at tackle won favorable comment in the Kansas game.
